The Su family of Meishan, Meizhou.

Mrs. Cheng was looking at her daughter who had fallen into a coma with a worried look on her face. She kept praying in her heart, hoping that the gods and Buddhas would bless her daughter to recover soon, and she hoped that her husband would return home soon.

Ever since Su Banniang gave birth to a son, she fell seriously ill, and the Cheng family refused to treat her. Su Xun and his wife had no choice but to take their daughter home for treatment.

Before Su Xun left home, Su Banniang had already recovered, so he felt at ease to leave home to visit his friends.

Unexpectedly, in just a few months, Su Baniang's condition not only did not recover, but worsened.

Thinking of her two daughters and one son who died young, and then looking at her only daughter who had grown up and might leave her at any time, Mrs. Cheng felt as if the sky was falling.

For a whole half month, Mrs. Cheng took care of her little daughter without taking off her clothes, fearing that if she was not careful, her little daughter would leave her like her eldest daughter, second daughter, and eldest son.

Su Shi and Su Zhe originally wanted to accompany their sister with their mother, but Madam Cheng did not allow it. The two brothers had to go to school first, for fear that their mother would have to find time to care about their studies in addition to taking care of their sister, which would exhaust her.

Although the two brothers had something on their minds, fortunately they were very smart and quickly completed today's homework.

"Fifth brother, let's go see my sister now. Mother has been very tired recently, and we don't know when father will be able to return home."

Su Wulang sighed and held his brother's hand. He was always lively, but now there was no smile on his face. He kept cursing and regretting in his heart:

"Damn the Cheng family! If I had known they would abuse my sister to this extent, I would never have let my sister marry into their family even if I died."

Although I felt very sad, I tried to cheer myself up and comforted my brother when I saw his uneasy look:

"Don't worry, brother. I think sister will recover soon. Then we can take her to play polo and go shopping together."

"As for my father, he should be coming home in the next few days. I really hope that my sister will be in good health by the time he comes home, so that our family won't have to endure the pain of separation."

Although Su Liulang was smart since childhood, he was still young after all. In addition, more than half of his older brothers and sisters died young. No matter how calm he was, he was already very panicked.

At this moment, he was holding the hand of his brother. Although his brother's hand was not big, he could feel full of security. The previous anxiety was gradually soothed, and the panic in his heart was no longer there.

Su Liulang tightly grasped his brother's hand, and somehow his pace gradually quickened: "Mom probably hasn't had dinner yet, Fifth Brother, just tell me you're hungry and want Mom to eat with you, and I'll definitely eat a little with you."

Although Su Wulang knew what his brother was thinking, he was not angry at all. Instead, because his brother was still young, he was very responsible and took the task of persuading their mother to eat.

The two brothers didn't care about the distinction between men and women at this moment, and quickly stepped into Su Baniang's boudoir. They first took a look at their little nephew, and then they hurried to see their sister.

"Mother, how is my sister now? Has she woken up this afternoon? What did the doctor say?"

Mrs. Cheng was "awakened" by her son's question, and her haggard face was filled with sadness: "The doctor said that your sister's health might be a little bad. If she can't be cured, she will definitely be exhausted if she continues like this."

The two brothers exclaimed in unison: "What?"

"Waah, wah, wah", before the two men could say anything else, the crying of a baby strongly interrupted their sorrow, and the two brothers were frightened and fell silent immediately.

Mrs. Cheng sat at the head of the bed and gently stroked her daughter's face, helped her to push away the loose hair at her temples, wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, and then went to the outer room to coax her grandson.

Fortunately, the child was well-behaved and fell asleep after being coaxed for a while. Just as I handed the child to the wet nurse and was about to step into the inner room, the housekeeper came running over.

"Madam, huh, huh, the master is back. I just saw the master back. Huh, he is on his way to the young lady's yard."

Mrs. Cheng burst into tears when she heard this. She had been supporting the family alone before. Not only did she have to manage the household affairs and look after her sons' studies, but she also had to take care of her sick daughter alone. She had been holding back her tears for more than half a month, and at this moment she could no longer hold them back.

As soon as Su Xun entered the room, he saw his wife crying bitterly. His heart skipped a beat and he ran into the inner room in a panic. He put his trembling fingers on the tip of his daughter's nose until he felt her weak breathing. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground with a plop.

Su Shi and Su Zhe had just recovered from the surprise of their father's return when they saw their father suddenly sitting on the ground. They hurried over to help him up, but unexpectedly their mother got there first.

Su Xun stood up with the help of his wife, and carefully looked at his sleeping daughter. Only then did he have the mind to look at his two sons.

Seeing that his two sons seemed to have grown a lot taller after not seeing them for a few months, he tried moving his legs and felt that his legs were not so weak. Then he walked over and patted them on the shoulders with satisfaction.

"Wu Lang, Liu Lang, thank you both for your hard work during this period. You have taken good care of mother and sister. Father is very pleased."

After hearing what her husband said, Mrs. Cheng looked at her two sons with a bitter heart. During the time when her daughter was seriously ill, not only was she exhausted, but her two sons also lost a lot of weight.

Now that her husband had finally returned, she felt the burden on her shoulders suddenly lightened a lot. She walked over with heartache and pulled up the quilt for her daughter, then looked at Su Xun for help.

"Mingyun, the doctor examined Ba Niang's pulse today and said that her health is not good. If she is not cured as soon as possible, even if she recovers in the future, she will have a serious illness. If she can't be cured, I'm afraid she will not be well."

Su Xun staggered after hearing this and asked in disbelief, "How can it be bad? How can it be incurable? Are you joking? My lady, are you mistaken?"

Madam Cheng also wanted to tell her husband that she had made a mistake, but the fact was that she was really afraid that she would have to experience the pain of losing a child again.

Su Wulang and Su Liulang stood by at a loss, looking at their father and mother, then at their sister, not knowing what to do.

The family stood in silence for nearly half an hour. After Mrs. Cheng calmed down, she saw her two sons still standing there blankly. She immediately walked over with heartache and took the two children in her arms.

Although the two brothers are over seven years old and usually look like little adults, at this moment they obediently let their mother hold them and were reluctant to leave her arms.

After a while, when Madam Cheng let the two brothers go and prepared to let them go back to rest, Su Liulang threw himself into his mother's arms again before anyone could react.

"Mother, sister will be fine. Zhe'er and brother will live long. Mother and father don't have to worry about us. Just focus on taking care of sister."

Su Wulang felt that he was too old to throw himself into his mother's arms like his younger brother, but after hearing what his younger brother said, he nodded firmly.

The couple looked at their two sensible sons, and because their daughter might die at any time, their hearts were suddenly filled with warmth, and they said in a hoarse and nasal voice, "Okay."

Su Xun looked at the tender faces of his two sons and suddenly thought of his youngest son's engagement token, and quickly took it out from his sleeve.

"Liu Lang, this is your engagement token. You are an adult now, so keep it for yourself and don't lose it."

"Okay, you two brothers can go back first. Your sister has me and your mother here, so you don't have to worry too much. Come visit your sister tomorrow when you have time."

Su Liulang mechanically took the jade pendant and was about to go back with his brother, but suddenly, as if he thought of something, he quickly placed the jade pendant under his sister's pillow and then ran away.

Wu Lang didn't have the energy to find out what was going on at the moment. He just watched his brother run away. After saying goodbye to his parents, he quickly chased after him.

When the couple saw their youngest son's action, although they were a little puzzled, they did not touch the jade pendant again. Instead, they sat quietly in front of the bed, staring at their daughter's sleeping face without blinking.

After an unknown amount of time, the tired couple gradually fell asleep, so they did not notice that their daughter woke up at night and fell asleep again quickly.

The next morning, the couple woke up bleary-eyed. The first thing they did was not to wash up, but to check on their daughter. After they felt that their daughter was fine, they took turns to take care of themselves.

The family sat in Su Banniang's boudoir and finished their breakfast with little interest. As the two brothers strongly requested to stay here to take care of their sister, the couple had no choice but to discuss and arrange the time to take care of Su Banniang, and everyone took turns.

At noon, when the maid was helping to tidy up Su Banniang's bed, she suddenly found the jade pendant under the pillow. Just as she was about to ask her master to put the thing down first, Su Liulang quickly put the jade pendant back to her sister.

Su Wulang wanted to use the joyful atmosphere on his engagement token to help his sister to celebrate. When he saw his brother's action, he looked at his father with resentment.

I felt a little unhappy and thought, "Even my younger brother has something to give to my sister to bring good luck, but I, as the older brother, have nothing. My father has left me behind again."

Fortunately, Su Xun was focusing all his attention on his grandson at the moment and did not notice his son's expression, otherwise he would have to give this ignorant son a surprise.

In this way, after the family took care of her non-stop for two days, Su Baniang finally woke up again. After the doctor took her pulse, he congratulated her twice. The whole family was so happy that they had tears in their eyes and they actually cried while laughing.

Su Baniang was still complaining about herself, but when she saw how worried her family was about her, the depression in her heart suddenly seemed to open up, and she allowed the warmth and care of her family to slowly replace it until it was filled up again.

"Dad, Mom, Wu Lang, Liu Lang, it's my fault. I made you worry during this period. Don't worry, I have thought it through now, and I will never let you worry about me like this again."

Mrs. Cheng choked up and hugged her daughter. Even though she had thousands of words to say to her daughter, she couldn't say anything at this moment.

Su Shi looked at the somewhat dull atmosphere in the room at the moment, and sighed exaggeratedly: "Sister, you don't know that you can get better so quickly this time, thanks to the jade pendant that your brother placed beside your bed."

When Su Liulang heard his brother say this, his eyes lit up, but Su Banniang was full of questions.

"Wulang, what kind of jade pendant did you say Liulang had? Where is it now?" After saying that, he turned around with difficulty and started looking around him.

Seeing her daughter like this, Mrs. Cheng quickly helped her lie down, then carefully took out the jade pendant from the pillow and handed it to her daughter.

Su Xun looked at his daughter who was full of doubts, and then he remembered that he had not yet told his wife in detail about the engagement of his youngest son.

So he quickly explained: "I went to Yangzhou to visit a friend some time ago, and had the honor of meeting Ouyang Yongshu, who is currently serving as the governor of Yangzhou."

"It was just an unfortunate coincidence that I went there. The prefect was going to Sheng Tongpan's house to celebrate the full moon, so he took me with him."

"After arriving at the Sheng Mansion, I was drunk, so Lord Sheng kept me in the guest house. Lord Sheng was very hospitable and did not look down on me as a commoner. Instead, he had a very pleasant conversation with me.

Therefore, during the banquet, Lord Sheng and I decided to have our children become in-laws, and let the second daughter of the Sheng family and the sixth son of our family get engaged. "

"The jade pendant in your hand is the token of the affection between Miss Sheng Er and Liu Lang. I was anxious before, so I didn't tell you in time. I hope you can forgive me for this."

Madam Cheng and the Su siblings were amazed when they heard this. Their master/father, a commoner, was able to marry a fifth-rank Tongpan (at this time, they didn't even know what the fifth-rank was, as Sheng Hong had now been promoted to the fourth-rank).

After hearing this, Madam Cheng was extremely satisfied. Although she still didn't know what kind of character the young lady from the Sheng family was like, after listening to her husband's evaluation of Mr. Sheng, she thought that the young lady from the Sheng family must be no bad person.

Su Liulang was not surprised to hear that his father had chosen a fiancée for him. After all, he had personally seen the engagement token with the girl and it had also "cured" his sister's illness. Therefore, it was easy for him to accept the fiancée, whose name he didn't even know.

After hearing this, Su Baniang felt happy for her brother that Liu Lang could have such a good marriage.

Only Su Wulang walked up to his father, looked at him with a face full of resentment, and said with a little hurt: "Dad, you left me behind again."

Su Xun was embarrassed for a moment, then he said confidently: "It's because you are too naughty and not as calm as your brother, so I had to leave you behind."

After hearing what his father said, Su Wulang immediately smiled. It turned out that it was not because his father had forgotten about him, but because he was too naughty, that was why he was not chosen by Mr. Sheng. Now it was okay.

Seeing that his son Wulang had regained his lively self, Su Xun finally felt relieved and asked about his two sons' homework.

After asking them a few questions, he found that both of his sons had answered well. He nodded with satisfaction and warned them again: "You two are more talented in studying than I am. Don't be like your father. You neglected your studies when you were young and remained a bachelor when you were old, wasting your talents."

The two brothers felt that they had been doing well in studying, so they nodded firmly, indicating that they would study hard.
